Definitions
- the present invention concerns:
- a solid phase is constituted by the extended wells, each of which immobilize a different cellular or molecular type in the examined sample;
- the other solid phase is constituted by immunosorbent elements protruding from a rod, each of which has been previously coated with one of the same markers to be detected in the sample; then, these immunosorbent elements are dipped into each extended well in groups of 3 or 4 or 6, afters ligands for markers to be detected have been added in liquid phase in the extended wells; these ligands bind to the immunosorbent elements in a inversely proportional amount to the quantity of the markers of each cellular or molecular type immobilized on the proper extended well that competes for the binding; these ligands are simultaneously quantifiable by an immunoenzymatic assay carried out by dipping the rod with the immunosorbent elements into a tube containing the conjugate and, then, by dipping each single element into the wells of standard microplates or micro
- kits suited for carrying out the above said method, using the above said devices with extended wells in order to obtain the simultaneously quantification of different cellular or molecular markers and the simultaneous detection of different cells or molecules exhibiting them, including immunoassay kits for a rapid tuberculosis diagnosis and paratuberculosis diagnosis at early stage, based on the quantification of different infection markers of different cooperating and cytolytic lymphocyte populations sensitized against different antigens or mycobacterial haptens.
- the extended well shape of the devices is needed to perform the method which aims to obtain:
- kits detecting the cellular immune response by an immuno-enzymatic assay that simultaneously quantifies the different lymphocyte markers in the tubercular and paratubercular infection, and simultaneously detects different cooperating and cytolytic lymphocyte populations that exhibit them, making achievable the rapid diagnosis of human tuberculosis, of bovine tuberculosis and of paratuberculosis in ruminants at early stage.
- the present invention is thought to solve some problems in the diagnosis of the human tuberculosis, which is one of the most worldwide impact infection diseases:
- kits apt to detect and to quantify the occurrence of infection markers on different kinds of lymphocyte cells
- kits apt to detect the cellular immunological response indicating the mycobacterial infection regardless of its localization
- the extended well device is constituted of microstrips with 3 extended wells, fit to hold 4 immunosorbent elements protruding from a rod at the same modular distance of wells arranged in 96-wells standard microplates; it is made of immunosorbent material useful to absorb monoclonal antibodies which specifically catch the sample CD4 T-lymphocytes or the CD8 T- lymphocytes, immobilizing them on 2 of the 3 extended wells, while the third one is not sensitized and serves as negative control.
- the extended well device is made of microplates containing 24 extended wells, 3 for each row from A to H; each extended well is fit to hold 4 immunosorbent elements protruding from a rod and the complete device is made of immunosorbent material.
- the elements protruding from a rod are made of immunosorbent material; they are 12 and they have previously been sensitized by the immobilization on each of them of one of the same markers that are to be quantified on every different cellular type in the sample.
- the method to detect and to quantify the different tuberculosis infection markers in different cooperating lymphocyte and cytolytic lymphocyte populations is based on the use of devices with extended wells in order to have the reaction of the competition between the two different shaped solid phases, through the following steps:
- CD4 T-lymphocytes and CD8 T-lymphocytes of the sample bind themselves respectively to the surface of the extended wells due to the previously immobilization of specific catching agents;
- biotinylated ligands to the infection lynfocytic markers to be quantified are added in the extended wells in the liquid phase, where the second solid phase is immediately immersed; this second solid phase is made of elements protruding from a rod, each of which is coated with a catcher, identical to one of the different markers that are to be detected on the lymphocytes;
- the biotinylated ligands bind themselves to the proper element, in an inverse proportion to the amount of each marker exhibited on the CD4 T-lymphocyte or CD8 T-lymphocyte types immobilized on the first solid phase constituted of the extended well;
- the device with the elements protruding from a rod is completely immersed into a vial containing the enzyme-streptavidin conjugate - which is cheaper to use than microplates and microstrips - due to the need of a single enzyme-streptavidin conjugate type, apt to detect the occurrence of the different biotinylated ligands caught by the elements; the conjugate amount caught by each element is in an inverse proportion to the quantity of the respective lymphocyte marker of the under testing sample;
- the elements are individually immersed into the wells of standard microplates or microstrips containing the chromogenic substrate, where the colorimetric reaction develops; this colorimetric reaction can be measured by the spectrophotometric reading.
- kits for the tuberculosis diagnosis based on the simultaneously quantification of different markers of infection present in the different lymphocyte populations are designed to essentially contain:
- kits allow to provide a solution suited for the main diagnostic problems that occur in the diagnosis of human and bovine tuberculosis, such as the extra-pulmonary localization of the infection, the time length required by the laboratory exams, the availability of well-equipped laboratories, expensive equipment and trained staff.
- the so designed kits allow an easier execution of the bovine tuberculosis prophylaxis operations in the veterinarian field. They also solve the problem of individuating the paratuberculosys infected ruminants at early stage, in order to reduce the spread of the infection in the livestock farming.
- the ideated devices with extended wells and their use in the competitive reaction between two different shaped solid phases, that allows two multiple detection types such as the determination of cellular types which show specific markers and the different markers quantification, mutatis mutandis, are applicable to cellular and molecular marker detection and quantification, even antibody markers, making a selection among the different cellular types or molecular types and the different antibody classes that exhibit them and that can be selected by an heterogenic sample through ready to use kits that do not need laboratory equipment and specialized staff to perform the test.
- the size and the position of the extended wells, that are part of the ideated devices, can be selected according to the specific analytical and diagnostic needs, as described below.
- microplates or microstrips with extended wells have the size of standard 8 or 12-wells microstrips or of standard circular cross section 96-wells microplates; the adjustment consists of over-sizing wells along the length of the microstrips or along the directions of the rows or, alternatively, of the columns of microplates in order to obtain the desired gauge so that each microstrip, or each row or column of the microplate contains extended wells according to one of the methods described below:
- each extended well - each of which is of the same lenght of 4 circular wells - can be contained in the microstrip of the size of a standard 8-wells microstrip and each extended well can contain 4 elements protruding from a rod, where these elements are set according to a modular distance that is the same of the modular arrangement of the wells of a standard 96-wells microplate or a standard 8 or 12-wells microstrip;
- 2 extended wells - each of which is of the length of 6 aligned wells of a standard 96-wells microplate - can be contained in the microstrip of the size of a standard 12-wells microstrip, and each extended well can contain 6 elements;
- each extended well can be contained in the microstrip of the size of a standard 12-wells microstrip and each extended well can contain 4 elements;
- each extended well can be contained in the microstrip of the size of a standard 12-wells microstrip and each extended well can contain 3 elements.
- the microplate having the size of the standard 96-wells microplate can contain: - 2 extended wells - each of which is of the same length of the 4 aligned wells of a standard 96-wells microplate - arranged in each of the 12 columns 1 up to 12 marked, for a total of 24 extended wells, each of which is apt to contain 4 elements;
- the constituent material, the inner surface and the bottom shape of the extended wells can be chosen and arranged according to the specific analytical and diagnostic needs; for example, for the cell-cultures of cells whose specific surface markers are to be detected and quantified; or for the fixation of cells of thin sections obtained by microtome on frozen material or embedded material; or to absorb or to cultivate or to fix infected cells, in order to detect the occurrence of virus-specific or virus-induced antigens caused by wild types or vaccinal strains infections; or to catch different antibody classes whose specificity is to be detected; or to attract antibody or antigen coated paramagnetic beads after their bound with their respective molecular or cellular targets. These paramagnetic beads are hold on the bottom of the well by a magnet fixed outside.
- the list is given as an illustrative but not limitative example.
- tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, one of the most worldwide spread infection among the human population, cannot be carried out by the standard serological tests and it is based on the cellular response detection methods, such as:
- gamma-interferon test in blood sample commercially available, that have to be read after 18-24 hours; it detects the interleukins, in particular the gamma-interferon one, released by THl-lymphocytes cooperating in cell-mediated response, if previously sensitized by the tuberculosis infection, when they are in culture and are stimulated by mycobacterial antigens.
- Differentiating the human active tuberculosis from the latent one is of utmost importance for a focused therapy that takes, respectively, 9 or 6 months; furthermore, it is useful for the monitoring of the infection during the therapy; it is based on the THl-lymphocytes number detection - that are sensitized against specific tuberculosis antigens such as the ESAT-6, CFP-10 ,TB7.7 - which secrete gamma-interferon and other interleukins when stimulated by antigens put in the culture medium.
- specific tuberculosis antigens such as the ESAT-6, CFP-10 ,TB7.7 - which secrete gamma-interferon and other interleukins when stimulated by antigens put in the culture medium.
- the direct lymphocytes markers detection and quantification are proposed, being that markers necessary expressed on the lymphocyte membrane when stimulated by a specific antigen to produce interleukins.
- the kit arrangement structured in order to have a rapid, time-saving and minimal equipment requiring screening or diagnostic kit, concerning the human tuberculosis, could be of great help in the worldwide health programmes, in sanitary alerts, in sanitary control when large amounts of population move from highly infected areas towards tuberculosis-free areas; furthermore, the kit would be useful in minimal setting countries, where the lacking of structural and infrastructural facilities do not allow the extensive monitoring of infected people by the commercially available diagnostic kits.
- the bovine tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis, is regulated by statutory eradication plans due to the serious pathologies induced in herds and due to its importance as zoonosis. Due to the fact that the indirect diagnosis cannot be performed by the standard serological methods, this is based on cellular response detection methods, such as:
- gamma-interferon test in blood sample commercially available, that has to be read after 18-24 hours; it detects the interleukins, in particular the gamma-interferon one, released by THl-lymphocytes cooperating in cell-mediated response, if previously sensitized by the tuberculosis infection, when they are in cultures and are stimulated by mycobacterial antigens or haptens.
- the skin test requiring the official veterinarian's inspection on the farm twice in three days, is gradually replaced by the gamma interferon test, commercially available.
- the kit arrangement structured in order to have a rapid screening kit concerning the bovine tuberculosis, could make the compulsory controls, regulated by national and international sanitary programs, easier and cheaper; the kit could allow resource saving both in tuberculosis-free areas and in tuberculosis infected areas, where the raised animals have to be regularly checked in order to stem the spread of the infection among the animal population and to reduce the risk of zoonotic transmission to humans.
- Rapid diagnostic and user-friendly kits are also needed in the paratuberculosis or John's disease indirect diagnosis at early stage, when the infection caused by Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis induces the cellular immune response in infected hosts, that excrete the pathogen contaminating the environment, transmitting the infection to the animal population; the humoral immune response detectable by standard serological tests develops in the following stages and it is less difficult to be detected.
- the paratuberculosis causes the productivity loss in livestock and it is a suspected zoonosis, probably involved in the Crohn's disease in humans.
- EP 0154687 describes a system having a first recess level that receives the liquid containing the cells, which covers each well; immunosorbent elements inserted into the wells detect the cell secreted proteins, yet surface cellular markers are not detectable. Moreover, the cell types could be identified carrying out further tests in the recovered liquid; this is incompatible with the arrangement of rapid assays.
- WO 03/085401 illustrates a system useful to arrange equipment-free and multiple immuno-enzymatic kits, since they include microplates or microstrips pre-filled with all the reagents to be used to carry out the assays. Its advantage is given by the use of microplates as mere reagent containers, while the device having immunosorbent protruding elements - that can be directly dipped in the sample collected in a tube and, then, in the microplate or microstrip wells containing the reagents - acts as solid phase.
- the device and the method described in WO 03/085401 and in the scientific publications that illustrate the experimental results obtained experimenting the system in applications concerning various fields are not apt to perform two types of multiple detection in the same analytical procedure, that are the identification of lymphocyte types that exhibit specific markers and the quantification of these different markers; these two types of multiipie detection have to be performed in order to meet the diagnostic requirements for tuberculosis, infection that mainly evocate the cellular immune response.
- the device and the method are suitable for the said diagnostic purposes when used in combination with the innovative extended well shaped solid phase, apt to hold immunosorbent elements in groups.
- WO 2207/039400 illustrates a method and a kit based on the simultaneous detection of different cytokines produced in excess by lymphocytes sensitized by tuberculosis infection when they are stimulated by specific tuberculosis antigens, with which they are incubated for 6 - 72 hours; other tuberculosis antigens are used as control; the test procedure requires skilled personnel and equipped laboratories.
- DE 10333545 illustrates a system composed of several modules forming several variously shaped recess levels, which are not apt to be set into a commercially available ELISA reader for the reading of the analytical results.
- WO 96/02836 describes a computerized system incompatible with the purposes expressed herein, since it is suited for the nucleic acid tests in clinical sample where the pathogen is localized, resulting not applicable to the diagnosis of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis infection; the system has plate teeth arranged in a comb, which can be immersed into specific wells, whose size and format are not apt to be used in the present invention that includes steps where the entire device - having immuonosorbent elements protruding from a rod - is dipped in tubes in order to reduce the costs of the tuberculosis diagnostic kits and to spread diagnosis in developing countries, where the infection rate is very high.
- U.S. 2010/083778 describes devices suited for retaining nonporous substrates which are simultaneously screened; they are absolutely unadapt for arranging the kits presented here, since they do not provide the separation into individual wells, which is essential for the correct diagnostic marker quantification, as illustrated here.
- the equipment suited for receiving reagents via micro-cannulas differs from the invention ideated and presented here; in particular, it does not contain several extended wells in the same row, which are apt to arrange kits comprehending a control test - to be carried out in parallel to the sample analysis - in a single row of a microplate or in a microstrip entirely dedicated to a sample to be analyzed in order to detect different cell types, each of which exhibits different markers to be quantified.
- the present invention aims to meet the need to realise a device, a method and a kit especially fitted for the different cellular or molecular marker detection joined with the simultaneous marker quantification on different cells or molecules that exhibit these markers; in particular, the so conceived kit is useful for the tuberculosis diagnosis, since it is easy to use and it requires minimal laboratory equipment.
- kits have been ideated for the rapid diagnosis of human tuberculosis and for the rapid diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis joined with the paratuberculosis diagnosis at early stage; kits allow to give the analytical report in a few hours and they are based on the cytolytic CD8 T-lymphocytes and the cooperating CD4 T-lymphocytes - comprising the TH1 lymphocytes cooperating in cellular response and TH2 lymphocytes cooperating in antibody response - detection, sensitized as a result of tuberculosis infection.
- Arrangement example of ready to use diagnostic kit for human tuberculosis, concerning a single sample assay, includes:
- well 1 is coated with anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody directed to the cooperating CD4 T-lymphocytes, which are bound in immune-complex on the well surface when whole blood sample is added;
- well 2 is coated with anti-CD8 monoclonal antibody directed to the cytolytic CD8 T-lymphocytes, which are bound in immune-complex on the well surface when whole blood sample is added;
- conjugate such as horseradish peroxidase-streptavidin
- TMB trimethylbenzidine
- a standard no binding 96-wells microplate can be used, pre-filled with washing solution for the elements, conjugate and chromogenic substrate, distributed as follows:
- LYMPHOCYTES CATCHING Whole blood sample added with anticoagulant is distributed, in 1 mL aliquots, into each of the 3 extended wells arranged in the microstrip. During the incubation time, the catching of cooperating T-lymphocytes on the surface of extended well 1 and the catching of cytolytic T- lymphocytes on the surface of the extended well 2 occur.
- the device having 12 coated elements is positioned onto the microstrip, so that 4 elements are immersed in each extended well; incubation occurs.
- the antibodies coating the device elements bind the biotinylated antigens and compete with the CD4 T-lymphocytes sensitized by tuberculosis infection previously caught on the extended well surface, while in extended well 2 they compete with the CD8 T-lymphocytes sensitized by tuberculosis infection previously caught on the extended well surface.
- the amount of biotinylated antigens bound in immuno-complex on each specific element is inversely proportional to the presence of markers exhibited by the sensitized lymphocytes previously caught on the extended well surface, that bind part of the same antigens through specific surface receptors, evocated by the tuberculosis infection.
- the elements are introduced into the wells of row A in a standard 96-well microplate, so that each element is immersed into a well containing washing solution; then the elements are dried on blotting paper. Washing step is performed also in the wells of rows B and C, followed by the drying of the elements. The elements are then immersed in the wells of row D, containing the conjugate; incubation occurs.
- the device having the immunosorbent elements protruding from a rod is lifted up and immersed in the remaining tube containing washing solution. After the drying of the elements on blotting paper, they are singularly dipped into the microstrip wells where the chromogenic substrate was previously distributed. Alternatively, if the reagents are pre-distributed in microplate, the elements are introduced into the wells of rows E, F and G; then they are dried and finally dipped into the wells of row H, containing the chromogenic substrate.
- Optical Density (OD) - in the wells where the chromogenic reaction was developed - is read by spectrophotometer or ELISA reader. In case of equipment lacking, test results can be read visually, comparing each color of the test wells with the color of negative control wells.
- the detected O.D. is inversely proportional to the amount of lymphocytes, respectively CD4 cooperating or CD8 cytotoxic, which are present in the blood sample, specific for the proper tuberculosis antigen; the interpretation of test results has to be made in relation to the O. D. measured in correspondence of elements 9, 10 and 11, which, since the absence of competitor lymphocytes in extended well 3, bind the maximum amount of each biotinylated antigen, while elements 4, 8 and 12 act as specificity control.
- the positive control is set up to calculate the calibration curve useful for the quantitative interpreting of the analytical results, including the cutoff point.
- different markers and different cell types may be replaced or added among those that the kit can detect and quantify, about which the above description is only given as an example.
- tuberculosis infection marker acting as tuberculosis infection marker to be quantified on different CD4 and CD8 T- lymphocytes
- Ready to use kits for many samples have to be arranged in order to comprise at least:
- microstrips having 3 extended wells, each of which has a length apt to receive 4 coated immunosorbent elements, or microplates having 3 extended wells arranged in 8 rows marked marked with letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H in a standard microplate, coated for each type of diagnosis, as above specified;
- the manual test execution is carried out, after incubating blood samples in the extended wells and the washing step, in each of the extended wells the selected mycobacteria antigen or hapten standardized mix is inoculated; then the frame containing the 8 devices having 12 coated immunosorbent elements is positioned, moving simultaneously the devices, so that the immunosorbent elements are:
- the microstrip (11) has the standard 12-wells microstrip dimension and it contains 3 extended wells of equal size; each extended well (10) has a length apt to receive 4 elements (12) of the device (13) having 12 elements protruding from a rod at a modular distance coinciding with the modular distance of the wells arranged in a standard 96-wells microplate and in a standard 12-wells microstrip.
- the microstrip (21) has the standard 12-wells microstrip dimension and it contains 4 extended wells of equal size; each extended well (20) has a length apt to receive 3 elements (22) of the device (23) having 12 elements protruding from a rod at a modular distance coinciding with the modular distance of the wells arranged in a standard 96-wells microplate and in a standard 12-wells microstrip.

- the microstrip (41) has the standard 8-wells microstrip dimension and it contains 2 extended wells of equal size; each extended well (40) has a length apt to receive 4 elements (42) of the device (43) having 8 elements protruding from a rod at a modular distance coinciding with the modular distance of the wells arranged in a standard 96-wells microplate and in a standard 8-wells microstrip.
- the microplate (51) has the standard 96-wells microplates dimension and it contains 24 extended wells of equal size; each extended well (50) has a length apt to receive 4 elements (52) of the device (53) having 12 elements protruding from a rod at a modular distance coinciding with the modular distance of the wells arranged in a standard 96-wells microplate.
- the microplate (61) has the standard 96-wells microplate dimension and it contains 32 extended wells of equal size; each extended well (60) has a length apt to receive 3 elements (62) of the device (63) having 12 elements protruding from a rod at a modular distance coinciding with the modular distance of the wells arranged in a standard 96-wells microplate.
